FAQs
Where are you located?
For clients in Los Angeles, I'm currently available on Mondays and Tuesdays for in-person sessions at my office in Larchmont Village, at 627 N Larchmont Blvd, Los Angels, CA 90004.
This central location is convenient to Hancock Park, Hollywood, West Hollywood, Mid-Wilshire, Beverly Hills, Beverly Grove, the Fairfax District, Koreatown, Silver Lake, Los Feliz, and Echo Park. There is ample street and metered parking in the area.
I also continue to use a secure platform for telehealth sessions, and meet with clients living throughout California and New Mexico.
Do you accept insurance?
I'm an out-of-network therapist, meaning I don't directly accept insurance. Before starting therapy I recommend contacting your insurance company to inquire about your mental health coverage, as deductibles and reimbursement rates vary depending on the type of plan you have.
Some questions to consider asking your insurance company to better understand your benefits:
Does my health insurance plan include out-of-network mental health benefits?
Do I have a deductible? If yes, what is it and have I met it yet?
Once I have met my deductible, what can I expect to be reimbursed for out-of-network sessions?
If you have out-of-network benefits and choose to use them, I can provide you with a superbill (a receipt) to submit to your insurance company. Any partial reimbursement of the session fee is sent directly to you.
What is your session fee?
Standard sessions are 50 minutes. My fee for an individual session is $200 and is $250 for multi-person sessions.
I also offer extended 75 or 90 minute sessions. Please ask me about this option if you’re interested in meeting for a longer period of time.
Do you have a sliding scale?
Standard sessions are 50 minutes. My fee for an individual session is $200 and is $250 for multi-person sessions.
I also offer extended 75 or 90 minute sessions. Please ask me about this option if you’re interested in meeting for a longer period of time.
The fee is due at the end of each session and processed using a secure payment platform. I accept all major credit and debit cards. You can also use your FSA or HSA card if psychotherapy sessions are covered.
How often should we meet?
I typically meet with clients on a weekly basis and find this frequency to be especially beneficial when beginning therapy. This type of consistency provides you with a regular space to process thoughts and feelings that come up in between sessions, gives us the opportunity to build trust and safety in the relationship, and helps with maintaining momentum. I also offer twice weekly sessions for those looking to meet more regularly.
How long will I be in therapy?
Therapy can be either short or long term, depending on what your personal goals are and what we're focusing on. I’ve worked with clients who feel better after briefly working together, while others attend therapy for multiple years, finding they benefit from having a regular space for exploration.
What’s your cancellation policy?
If you’re unable to attend a session, I ask for at least 24 hours notice. If your appointment is not cancelled or rescheduled within this time frame you'll be responsible for the session fee.
